NEWS RELEASE

Upgrade to Mineral Resources Estimate for the Goldstorm Porphyry Deposit at the Treaty

Creek Project, British Columbia with Increased Gold, Copper and Silver Grades and Doubling

of the Total Contained Copper to 2.1 Billion Pounds in the Indicated Category

March 15, 2023 Victoria, Canada –– Teuton Resources Corp. (“Teuton” or “the Company”) (“TUO”-TSX-

V) ("TFE"- Frankfurt) announces that it has received from its Joint Venture Partner Tudor Gold Corp. (“Tu-

dor Gold”) results of an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) prepared by Garth Kirkham P. Geo., of

Kirkham Geosystems Ltd., and JDS Energy and Mining Inc. ("JDS") for its flagship Treaty Creek project (the

"Project") located in the Golden Triangle Region of British Columbia. Tudor Gold’s initial Mineral Resource

Estimate for the Project was included in a technical report entitled “Technical Report and Initial Mineral

Resource Estimate of the Treaty Creek Gold Property, Skeena Mining Division, British Columbia, Canada”,

dated April 23, 2021, with an effective date of March 1, 2021. (the "2021 MRE").

Highlights of the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate on the Goldstorm Deposit at the Project (“MRE”):

• Indicated Mineral Resource of 23.37 million ounces (Moz) of gold equivalent (AuEq) within 641.93

million tonnes (Mt) at a grade of 1.13 g/t AuEq; comprised of:

• 18.75 Moz of gold (Au) at 0.91 g/t, 112.44 Moz of silver (Ag) at 5.45 g/t, and 2.18 billion pounds

(Blbs) of copper (Cu) at 0.15 %.

• Inferred Mineral Resource of 7.35 Moz AuEq within 233.90 Mt at a grade of 0.98 g/t AuEq; com-

prised of:

• 5.54 Moz Au at 0.74 g/t, 45.08 Moz Ag at 5.99 g/t, and 848.00 million pounds (Mlbs) of Cu at

0.16 %.

• CS-600 Domain is comprised of an intrusive hosted gold-copper porphyry system and hosts an Indi-

cated Mineral Resource of 9.86 Moz of AuEq within 278.02 Mt at a grade of 1.10 g/t AuEq; com-

prised of:

• 6.22 Moz Au at 0.70 g/t; and 1.98 Blbs of Cu at 0.32 %.

• A 1.0 g/t sensitivity cut -off for all the Indicated Mineral Resource (open -pit and underground)

measures 15.18 Moz of AuEq at a grade of 1.48 g/t AuEq; comprised of:

• 12.29 Moz of Au at 1.20 g/t, 72.07 Moz of Ag at 7.02 g/t and 1.35 Blbs of Cu at 0.19 %.

• Improved the definition and spatial continuity of the Goldstorm porphyry system which is comprised

of six separate mineral domains over an area that measures approximately 2,500 m in length, 1,000

m in width and 1,400 m in depth.

• The Goldstorm Deposit remains open to the south, north, northeast and at depth.

Commenting on the results, Ken Konkin, President & CEO of Tudor Gold said, "We are very pleased by the

results of our updated M RE for the Goldstorm Deposit, which resulted in an impressive 53% increase in

the gold equivalent grade and a 20% increase in total gold equivalent ounces within the Indicated Mineral

Resource category. The updated MRE utilizes higher cut-off grades (Pit: 0.50 g/t AuEq, Underground: 0.70

g/t AuEq) than the 2021 MRE (Pit: 0.30 g/t AuEq, Underground: 0.46 g/t AuEq). These higher cut-off grades

exemplify the robust nature of this deposit, including the mineral consistency and thickness of the higher-

grade gold and copper mineralized domains that were intercepted during the Company’s 2021 and 2022

drill programs. Even at these higher cut-off grades, the overall project-wide contained copper in both the

Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource categories increased to more than doub le that of the previous

MRE, to over 3 billion pounds of copper. These accomplishments are a culmination of two additional years

of drilling and refining of our geologic understanding to vector towards higher -grade gold, copper, and

silver. These improvements to the Goldstorm Deposit are expected to provide an excellent foundation as

the Company advances the Treaty Creek Project towards an initial economic assessment. Continued

definition and expansion drilling will continue in 2023 to target higher gold, silver and copper grades

throughout the northern expansion area of the Goldstorm Deposit.”

Dino Cremonese, P . Eng., President & CEO of Teuton Resources said: “This is a milestone in the evolution

of the Treaty Creek Project. The 53% increase in the gold equivalent grade is particularly noteworthy as it

improves the attractiveness of the property to major mining companies. I’d like to send a big ‘thank you’

to Ken Konkin of Tudor Gold and all of the people who have assisted bringing us to this point.”

Updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Goldstorm Deposit

The MRE was prepared by Garth Kirkham, P .Geo, based on 201 diamond drill holes ( 148,474 meters)

completed between 2007 and 2022. The MRE included 62,916 meters of diamond drill holes that were

completed since the 2021 MRE. A National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report is expected to be prepared

by Garth Kirkham Geosystems and JDS and posted on www.tudor-gold.com and under the Company’s

profile on www.SEDAR.com within 45 days of the date of this news release.

(1) Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of Mineral

Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other rele-

vant issues.

(2) The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral

Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the inferred Mineral

Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.

(3) The Mineral Resources in this press release were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petro-

leum (CIM) Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions (2014) and Best Practices (2019) prepared by the CIM

Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council.

(4) The Mineral Resource Estimate was prepared for a potential open pit scenario using a constrained pit shell (with 50-degree

slopes) at a 0.5 g/t gold equivalent cut-off grade and an underground mining scenario using a 0.7 g/t gold equivalent cut-off grade.

Cut-off grades were derived from US$ 1,800/oz gold, US$ 20/oz silver, US$ 3.50/lb copper, CAD:USD of 0.77, C$ 2.50/tonne open

pit and C$7.50 underground mining cost, C$ 38.50/tonne milled processing costs, C$ 1.50/tonne G&A cost, and process recoveries

of 90 % for gold, 80 % for copper, and 80 % for silver.

(5) AuEq g/t = Au g/t + (Ag g/t*0.0098765) + (Cu ppm*0.0001185)

(6) A mineral estimate of the material within the defined pit that exists outside of the outlined mineral domains was completed

and is included within the Inferred Mineral Resource, and listed “In Pit, External” in Table 4.

The Goldstorm sensitivity tables (Tables 2 and 3) report the variation of resource grade and tonnage with

respect to the change in cut-off grades for the Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources.

The Goldstorm Deposit consists of six mineral domains with unique geological characteristics. Five of the

domains are gold -dominant with lesser proportions of silver and copper. Domain CS -600 is dominantly

gold and copper rich, with lesser silver. The CS -600 hosts the majority of the copper at the Goldstorm

Deposit and consists of a well -defined intrusive porphyry system. Table 4 summarizes the Indicated and

Inferred Mineral Resources for each mineral domain.

2023 Exploration Program

In 2023, the Company expects to continue to target the Goldstorm Deposit in particular the limits of the

CS-600 and the DS-5 Domains. Definition and step-out drilling within the current resource will continue

to target higher gold, silver and copper grades throughout the northern step -out expansion area at

Goldstorm. The overarching goal of future exploration programs is to increase the size of the current Treaty

Creek Property Mineral Resource, continue to make new significant discoveries, and advance the

Goldstorm Deposit and the Project towards an initial economic assessment.

About Treaty Creek

Teuton was the original staker of the Treaty Creek property, host to the large Goldstorm deposit,

assembling the core land position in 1985. It presently holds a 20% carried interest in the Treaty Creek

Project (Tudor Gold is responsible for paying all exploration costs up until such time as a production

decision is made and owns a 60% inter est; American Creek Resources owns the remaining 20% interest,

also carried). Additionally, Teuton owns a 0.98% Net Smelter Royalty in the Goldstorm deposit area. It

also owns numerous additional royalty interests within the Sulphurests Hydrothermal syst em on

properties such as the King Tut, Tuck, High North, Orion, Delta and Fairweather properties.

About Teuton

Teuton owns interests in more than thirty properties in the prolific “Golden Triangle” area of northwest

British Columbia and was one of the fir st companies to adopt what has since become known as the

“prospect generator” model. This model minimizes share equity dilution while at the same time

maximizing opportunity. Earnings provided from option payments (received in cash and often also in

shares of the optionee companies), has provided Teuton with substantial income over the years.
